This season of Charm School opens with fourteen women from Rock of Love Bus and Real Chance of Love on a bus traveling to meet their headmistress, Ricki Lake. Each girl is given a Charm School alias to represent what it is they need to work on in Charm School. Ricki Lake introduces herself to the girls, stating that the fourteen girls will learn to make a difference in their lives by helping those in need. She tells the girls that they will kick off the semester by doing something good right off the bat, donating some of their own clothes to the charity Out of the Closet. The girls are then welcomed into the house and learn where the whereabouts of where their already assigned beds are. Farrah and Ashley are excited that they get to bunk with each other: They've been good friends ever since they were on Rock of Love Bus together. Other girls, however, are upset with their bunking partners, such as So Hood and Bubbles. Bubbles insists on talking to So Hood about being at Charm School, but So Hood refuses to talk to Bubbles and yells at her to stop talking to her. Hearing the screaming of So Hood, Bay Bay Bay instigates and gets in Bubble's face, and KiKi soon joins in. After the girls become situated, they are allowed to drink alcohol outside, and explore the rest of Charm School. They find their uniforms in their assigned lockers, and decide on what clothes they are going to donate to charity. Farrah jokes that she will donate a hairpiece, while Bay Bay Bay and Ki Ki also state they are going to donate pajamas that say "Stallionares" on them, because they "Are not in love, with a Stallionare!". Meanwhile, Beverly becomes intoxicated, joking "I think I am a little bit intoxicated. I don't really know for sure...if I am intoxicated. But I think I am!" much to the amusement of the other girls. Brittaney makes a comment about her being drunk and it sets Beverly off. The drunken Beverly then confronts Brittaney about her incident on Rock of Love Bus when the other girls discovered food and their used socks, supposedly stolen, in Brittaney's bed. Brittaney retorts saying that Beverly is a sloppy drunk and a bad mother. Beverly then yells in Brittaney's face, and Brittaney, saying she will stick up for herself from now on, yells back. Beverly becomes infuriated and pushes Brittaney, but they are soon separated by Bay Bay Bay and So Hood.
